From his twitter...''Im out. Happy with my play overall but the biggest hand tilts me so baaaad!!! I'm cbetting the flop 8/10 times!! Thanks for all the support''.

Yeah I can see how this would be very tilting.

He said he's quitting poker before the EPT Grand Final. Not sure if he'll keep his word on that though

wtf @ those arms, hit the gym seriously!

Oh and sure I'm confirmed jealous. Hopefully he'll re-emerge at online nosebleeds, win or lose.

Yeah we will probably see a lot more of him in the future, he is currently playing the cash game in Macau. He was in the 5000/10000 HKD ($650/1300) game two days ago according to his twitter.

I just really hope for his sake that he isn't able to get his hands on all the money. Obviously the poker community love this sort of thing, just we all know how these things usually end up in a few years. It's just another perky in the making. $30m and the kid wastes his time playing poker, I know what i'd be doing if I was 19 with $30m to my name.

Hell no, i'd at least make sure that a large portion of it would be around in at least 5 years. FTP would just be a money pit. If the goal is for capital accumulation then everyone knows where the big money goes to gamble and it's not the poker tables. But 19 with $30m to my name....that's going to buy some fancy **** and i'd enjoy life for a bit, not waste it sitting indoors with a bunch of degens.

i really don't see why he would choose to play poker with his money. How much richer can he get and why not go to some prestigious US/European college for great education and amazing times instead. These are the best years of ones life, and i am glad i didn't spend mine at the poker table, that's for sure.
